finger joint

A finger joint is where two bones in your finger meet, connecting the bones and allowing movement. These joints include the knuckles, which are the base of your fingers, the middle joints, and the tip joints. They are made of cartilage, a smooth tissue that cushions the bones, and are supported by ligaments that hold everything in place. Joints enable you to bend, straighten, and grip objects. Proper joint health is essential for finger mobility and strength, and issues like arthritis can cause pain or stiffness in these areas.
